KOSPI plunges

A financial data screen in the dealing room of Hana Bank in Seoul on March 3, 2026, shows the benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index having logged an intraday low of 5,893.68, down 5.61 percent from the previous session in early trading. South Korea's main bourse operator, the Korea Exchange, issued a sell-side circuit breaker, temporarily halting trading after a sharp drop sparked by market concerns over U.S. air strikes on Iran.
